Choosing the best foundation for your children is not easy as this is what shapes their future. Glad that we found OTCN. We got our daughter admitted just about 4 months ago at 2.5 years of age and there is no exaggeration in saying that we are extremely proud of her development. We hadn't imagined how well she would be communicating with us and learning so many things in such a short span of time. Out of many things that we strive to do the best for her, choosing OTCN as her first school is definitely one of them. Great work and dedication by the school management, her class teacher and support staff. Would recommend any day with eyes closed.

It is said, for a tree to grow strong & beautiful, it should have strong roots which are nourished and developed in good soil. We'd call Orange Tree nursery that rich soil which sets the foundations of your child's education. It was one of the best decisions of our life to have our child experience their care in the creche just at 4 months old; and later on this year when she began her first year of pre-schooling here in Dubai on a British curriculum. A very special mention about her talented teacher Miss Fiona Lee and teaching assistants Miss Rona & Miss Abdullah who nurtured her with their love & care & concern, not forgetting their arts & music teacher Miss Diana. We have experienced this in the way we have seen the changes our child has developed in her reading, writing, drawing, singing, dancing, and many other behavioural skills over the past 3 terms at school. Orange Tree keep busy parents like us well informed of our child's progress through their App and periodic assessment reviews; a special mention to the high safety standards at the nursery, which gives us complete peace of mind while at work. Also, since they are partnered with Safa British School (& a few other top-notch schools we believe), getting admission there was a cakewalk, since the assessments happened at the nursery itself; saving us working parents the hassle of running around all over Dubai looking for admissions in good schools. We would highly recommend this nursery school to any busy parent who wants to see the talent develop in their child; surely one of the best nurseries in Dubai!

My son has been attending Orange Tree since he was a baby. Staff are all very friendly, professional and do their best to accommodate every child’s needs. They really make an effort to ensure it’s a fun, safe place to learn and are always coming up with different activities. The rooms are well equipped and the children do lots of different things each day. Overall, I can go to work with complete confidence that my son is being well looked after. I would highly recommend the nursery to anyone. It is a caring, fun and stimulating environment for children which they seem to really enjoy. It is an inspiring and amazing nursery.

A good school in the formative years plays a very important role in the child’s development. When I saw our friend’s son bloom and blossom with confidence, I knew Orange Tree would be the school for my son too. My son has now been with the school for more than a year and he adores spending every moment there. This is mainly because of the wonderful teachers and the friendly learning atmosphere they have created. Learning has never been so much fun. I thoroughly value the constant feedbacks I get from the teachers about my son’s progress. OT is family now to us.

We visited several places as it was going to be the first time for our daughter to attend nursery. We found Orange Tree a friendly place with good open spaces and well lit and decided to enrol our daughter there. We were aware that it was not going to be easy for our daughter to adjust to the new environment but it was much more challenging than we anticipated and we are very thankful to Ms. Claire and the class assistance for always being patient and taking god care of our daughter at the same time ensuring she gets used to school. Our daughter now looks forward to going to school and we have seen several developments in different areas over the last 3 months and are now looking forward to next school year. We also receive daily updates on the app on the days activities and the staff makes every effort to give us a view on our daughters day at school as well as upcoming events which is very useful
